What a joke... words are nothing more than hot air... we see it allthe time now, pollies going back on their word once they have beenelected. We need a party.... The Patriotic Party !!??

At least, if Jewlia ever gives up politics, she can get a job as a'traffic cop'... what's with this new trend... every word is punctuatedwith some ridiculous hand movement or gesture... really puts me off...seems very yiddish... she looks like a praying-mantis just before it kills it's prey !!! yeah!!! pretty appropriate !! (Next time you see her on tv spruiking, turn the sound off and just watch...!!)

Democratic Right = three minutes in a booth filling in a form... finito !!

WE have a party...Australia First Party - Federally Registered and running candidates in this election in just 4 weeks time. If you want to see at least one of the candidates in government I urge you to help in any way possible. This is a REAL opportunity - not a party that wishes it was running - this IS happening now. Get behind it and be part of the solution or stay out and be part of the problem.Australia First Queensland

What it drove home to me is how alike the major parties really are. Despite the rhetoric, there's little difference between the parties on immigration policy. Both effectively support a "big Australia". And as for the boats, the disagreement was about where we should "process" the illegals, not whether we should "process" them.

Abbott is against the mining tax and a carbon tax, but he supports increasing company tax (and of course he won't be taxing the multinationals). Of course there was no talk of abolishing the GST or income tax and introducing a debit tax instead. No talk of introducing a People's Bank. No talk of introducing citizens initiated referenda. No talk of tarrifs or protecting Australian industry. No talk of withdrawing from UN treaties and conventions. No talk of abolishing Multiculturalism. No talk of abolishing the Anti-Discrimination Commission. No talk of limiting foreign ownership. No talk of protecting people's freedom of speech or privacy. And the internet filter wasn't even discussed during the debate, even though it's a hot issue with the public.

Just the same bi-partisan crap from the Lib-Labs.

WOW! Well summed-up!
Here's some policy stances for ya....guess which party they come from.....
1. We demand that YOU, the people, should be represented in the parliaments and not be the victims of cynical, corrupt, and foreign-loyal party machines.
2. We demand the Implementation of Citizens’ Initiated Referendum and Voters’ Recall of parliamentarians, so you the people can propose the laws and get rid of unresponsive parliamentarians.
3. We demand accountability for all politicians: for all those who have failed and corrupted Australia, sold the country to foreign states and agencies, or devoted themselves to globalisation; we pledge to nationalize their personal property and deny them parliamentary pensions and benefits.
4. We demand the promotion and rebuilding of Australian manufacturing and thence - Australian jobs for Australian workers.
5. We demand the re-instatement of the Commonwealth Bank as originally intended to limit interest rates and to eliminate the private control of the nation’s credit.
6. We demand the control of currency exchange rates to end speculation in the national currency and resources.
7. We demand the reform of taxation, its simplification to end the exemptions for the speculators, the multinationals and the super-rich.
8. We demand an end to foreign ownership and control of Australian real estate and Australian resources.
9. We demand: the end of all immigration for a long period, a population policy for Australia ; the repudiation of all treaties on refugees ; the end of contract labour ; the end of residency for foreign students; the end of multiculturalism; the humane deportation of the refugees and other undesirable persons.
10. We demand that the Australian transport industry be freed of bureaucratic control with the end of world-parity-pricing for fuel and with public ownership of all roads and abolition of tolls.
11. We demand protection for Australian farmers by the provision of a guaranteed national market and pricing system, such that all food necessary to sustain the Australian People may be grown in Australia and regional Australia be maintained.
